Quick Cauliflower Fried Rice

This Cauliflower Fried Rice is a healthy low-carb take on fried rice.  It comes together in no time and tastes as good as take-out!

Have you jumped on the cauliflower rice bandwagon yet?  Seems like everyone I talk to (well mostly my health conscious friends) are talking about cauliflower rice these days.  Particularly the Trader Joe’s frozen organic cauliflower rice.  I used a big beautiful snow white organic head of cauliflower to make this Quick Cauliflower Fried Rice with,  but I like the idea (a lot)  of just opening a bag (as long as it’s organic) to cut down on prep time.

It’s incredibly simple to pull this Cauliflower Fried Rice together.  Fresh cauliflower rice is quickly stir fried with some chopped carrots, peas, onions, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, Tamari (or soy sauce) and a wee bit of oyster sauce.  The oyster sauce gives this rice a delicious depth of flavor.  Once you add oyster sauce to your fried rice and stir fries, you’re not likely to turn back!
